One thing could be the 32/64bit thing, although I would guess thats not
the problem.

You mean the Disk Files are the same. What about the xml-Files with the
settings? Maybe there is some more voodoo in there?

Try booting a live CD (knoppix, grml, ...) in the vm, and look if you
can access the disks. I do not know what your guest OS is, but maybe it
is a "windows with changed hardware" problem, although the "hardware"
should be quite similar.

Again, Im not an expert...
